Propose a change

Extradition Act 2003

Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

What to do with it
As published

115A Detention pending conclusion of certain appeals under section 114

(1) This section applies if— (a) on an appeal under section 103 or 108 the High Court orders the person's discharge; (b) immediately after it does so, the court is informed on behalf of the category 2 territory of an intention to appeal under section 114. (2) The court must remand the person in custody or on bail while the appeal is pending. (3) If the court remands the person in custody it may later grant bail. (4) An appeal under section 114 ceases to be pending at the earliest of these times— (a) when the proceedings on the appeal are discontinued; (b) at the end of the permitted period, which is 28 days starting with the day on which leave to appeal to the House of Lords against the decision of the High Court on the appeal under section 103 or 108 is granted, if no appeal to the House of Lords is brought before the end of that period; (c) when there is no further step that can be taken on behalf of the category 2 territory in relation to the appeal (ignoring any power of a court to grant leave to take a step out of time). (5) The preceding provisions of this section do not apply to Scotland.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.

Think it through

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
